i'm having fun
OK
>>737057615A blast you mean
when did this get officially released? was it hours ago or minutes ago?
>>737058493like two hours ago
>>737059796well that explains why its not up for torrent yet
>>737057615Is it worth it? I was playing Citadel lately and I'm in the mood for a singleplayer shooterIt being in black and white makes it look a bit dull visually though
he's having a blast
It makes sense its a smaller project, but it doesn't even come close to perfectly emulating the early animation look in the same way Cuphead does. I think the fact that Cuphead was initially animated on paper is what makes it have that perfect grit. Mouse P.I. feels sterile in comparison.
>>737057615are you
>>737057615Prove it.
bendy really fucked up this artstyle for me
>>737057615Its actually really good so far. Not super serious but I wanted it to be fun and cartoony. IGN was smoking dick about the difficulty too, definitely feels like a solid 9 out of 10 game so far. Pirated it but ill buy it when I have the money to support the developers. Between this and Windrose indies are hitting all the right boxes.
>toonslop
>>737057615I have to wait until I get home, glad you are having fun.
>>737064234Hell yeah.
Death to shrews
>>737057615I might buy this later tonight if it's below 20€.
>>737060267This is pretty much every rubberhose attempt since Cuphead.As with most things it's better to use that success as an inspiration to bring other styles to life, like what "The Life Of Goldman" or "Orbitals" are doing.
>have to accept a privacy policy before entering the gameIndie niggers are becoming worse and worse as time goes on
>>737057615Didn't this game come out a while ago
>>737057615Looks neat
>>737060142>CitadelnigI'd recommend you playing Russian roulette instead.
The trailer made it seem like it would be 10/10. I'm playing now and it's more like a 7
>>737057615Fun? in /v/?
I'm not
The environments are totally static. It's so satisfying in FPS games to light up an enemy and see background objects like bottles and wooden furniture break. Fucking hell.
>>737057615is the caravan palace music good (i used to wake up my gf to caravan palace and make her breakfast on my day off when she slept over, and now she's my wife so this'll be nostalgic in the morning with good breakfast no matter what!)true story nigger faggots :L
>>737060142>in the mood for a singleplayer shooterYou could look into Cultic if you've never played that.
>>737067034That would be more Fallen Ace
>>737057615Is this a New Blood game?
>>737059850fucking thief
My thoughts so far after the first hour:>can only carry 28 bullets at a time for your 8 shot pistol, it serves no purpose other than to have your character constantly looking around to make sure ammo is topped off>environment is totally static other than some clearly highlighted interactable crates and explosive barrels >rubber hose animation style is worse than what Cuphead did, but it looks alright>shooting is okay but not as satisfying for me as other boomer shooters like Cultic>story is what you expect, a parody of noir films >game is on the easy side so far, never got lower than 80 health 6/10 but I'm only an hour in, so
did anyone else notice the john saint john/ sebastian brightbottom cartoon that played on some of the tvs?
>>737057615It's an 8/10 game, I'm enjoying it.
>>737057615Bioshock without the Plasmids. I really appreciate that when you upgrade your weapons, like in Bioshock, they visually get little doodads and shit on them..
>>737068243I'm more believable of this score, as much as I would like this game to be greater despite the fact I've only seen videos and images, because you actually gave SOME input about the game itself that was objectively informative, instead of just throwing out a score and leaving baseless, subjective info based on current emotion.Plus, 6/10 is, and always have been, an above average score, despite what idiots may think.
I first heard of this game yesterday, post webms/screenshots.
>>737070017>>737070065have you guys met Tammy Tumbler yet?
>>737057615kind of seems like it's relying on furbait/bendy money. I know it's Unity but it looks like a really high effort Source mod.
>>737070017I have seen retard subhumans here claim anything below an 8/10 is a bad score.
>30€Too expensive.
>>737057615post gameplay, gotta see animations, sound, gunplay and map design and maybe ai too
>>737070453i need to suck her cock
>>737057615I'm bored
>polish game>can't replay levels if you missed a collectable>wish the world wasn't static and had some physics to some props when the fights break out>can't get the secret gun if you don't get the tokens from the levels ties back into not being able to replay levels>wish the world was little brighter on the monochromeit feels very dry and I've already breezed through the first four or five levels even taking my time to look for shit.
just encountered a bug that locks the Gator boss in the sewers behind the cage where he spawns. no amount of reloading saves can fix it
>>737072803I have a feeling level replay will probably be one of the first things patched in but I am so tired of this being the process. I mean it's nice that it's a possibility in this day and age but I wish we just had more common sense with these things.
>>737070017Update: still in the 6 or 7 range, but I'm having fun. If you like boomer shooters and singleplayer FPS it's worth it but don't expect it to blow your socks off
>>737072793That reviewer sounded autistic. He was complaining about it being unrealistic for a private investigator to kill that many people.
Update: already uninstalled
>>737073485You're the one who sounds autistic.
You would be having way more fun playing a proper boomer shooter.
Steamboat Willie referenced within first 10min
>>737072793>if you just want to blast some cartoon mice and not think about it too hardLmao, "game" "journalists" are such a bunch of faggot posers. It's almost like they don't want to play games.
Why is it called "rubber hose" art style? I always called it the Max Fleishcer art style.
Switch 2 port any good?
>>737074904Because characters in Rubberhose style have limbs that are just that, rubberhoses, without any defined joints.
>>737057615Blast status?
>>737072793Get fucked indiefags, this is what you get for tanking Marathon
>>737073485https://opencritic.com/critic/1205/will-borgerHis taste is... questionable.
>>737072793If journos hate it than you know its great.
Great game so far. Playing the theater mission. Love the lockpicking mechanic. Wish it didn’t feel so static but enjoying it overall
>>737073325now i have a bug preventing me from picking up the blueprints for Tammy. why do indiefags launch games with bugs?
>>737075283inside of her, I presume
>>737057615why is the cig coming out of his tooth?
>>737070453>>737075551You've got my attention.
>>737075646Because the devs are goddamn poseurs that can't get shit right.
>>7370756461930s Popeye hallmark, puffs his pipe out the sides of his mouth while beating the shit out of Bluto and calling him slurs. Popeye gets to keep his trademark pipe in his mouth and you've sidestepped a realistic body rule to free up the mouth for dialog.. Paul Rudish does it a bit in his work on the nuMickey shorts
>>737075948Popeye has no teeth though.
>>737075995what?
>>737075995>Popeye has no teeth though.Yes he does.
>>737075995Fucking moron.
>>737076038>>737076076Get the fuck outta here with this new age bullshit.
>>737073885Fuck Disney.
>>737076187Ah what the fresh heck is this
>>737076038same energy
>>737076304alternate angle of quagmire toilet taken from a deleted scene
>>737057615Wait is that an animated artstyle? Oh my god, guise, this the new Concord!
should i get the deluxe or regular version? is the dlc worth it?
>>737057615same
I really like these segments even though there's no real interactivity with the environment. It reminds me of Paper Mario's towns and how 'busy' they looked. I just wish that there was more background dialog, NPCs talking to each other and stuff like that. >>737077626right now it's just the comic book you can find in-game through collectibles and the OST (which is pretty decent.) We have no idea what the scope or cost of this first DLC will be so it's more of an 'if you really like the game' kind of thing. They do have a deluxe edition upgrade option in the store if you purchase standard
The setting is cool but it does NOT feel like a video game. The gameplay is worse than the SEGA CD games and that says a lot.
>>737057615Boy they got their fucking money's worth with Troy Baker lmaoGame looks decent. A little hard to tell what's going on when the game is monochrome by design.
>>737078685How do you fuck up an FPS? Just point and shoot lmoa
>>737067932No, but Fallen Aces is, which has a comic book style instead of rubberhose and plays more like Thief or Deus Ex.
>>737072793>>737073485So he wanted some kind of immersive slow burn sim and was upset he got a doom wad with lots of talking in it?
>>737077626dlc? Didnt this JUST come out?
>>737057615>no colorsshit game
>>737057615I'm playing it on Super Sleuth right now and I'm enjoying myself also.
>>737079158are you from the 2010s?most big releases all come out with dlc now
>>737064045>Windrose indies are hitting all the right boxes.So mad about that. Downloaded the demo, played around ten minutes, was digging it, but crashed cause long dayWoke up and the demo period endedThose type of games are always 50/50 for me, so I wanted to try it for another hour before I took the jump.Ill just wait, no rush if it's good.
>>737073885nice boat
oh no bros someone split her in half... who would do such a thing??
>>737057615I wish they add colour in New Game + at least.Even Cuphead managed to have three colour filters.
>>737080460I get the point of the homage but monochrome is a limitation first and foremost. Even more artsy mediums rarely bother with it because it just looks like ass most of the time. And it a game it negatively imacts the gameplay.Most games opt for a soft monochrome (black and white with bright colours for certain things like blood, items, enemies etc.)
>Mouse women are flat or fat One job.
>>737071181BUMP BUMP BUUUUUUUUUMPPPPPP
>>737079158Anon, if your four hour long single-player game doesn't have a two year roadmap with DLC expansions, you'll have people leaving negative Steam reviews complaining how you "abandoned" the game.
>>737070453Repulsive.
>>737068091Not that anon, but if a game doesnt provide a playable demo that's the first 1/3rd of the game then I'll always pirate it. If a game is over $30 I'll always pirate it. Dont like it? Release playable demos and lower the price of your game.
>>737070453I like the way she dances
>>737070453she's gross and unattractive, so naturally /d/, /c/, /e/, grok and deviantart will be plastered with porn of her in a few days.
I was going to buy but it has no ADS. Im tired of shooters with no ADS
>>737082902fanartitsfanartists* will fix this in post-production
>>737075485
>>737059850
>>737072803>can't replay levels if you missed a collectableWhy the fuck would you want to replay levels?What kind of autist actually cares about collectibles in games?its a boomer shooter, you're supposed to just shoot cunts. >wish the world wasn't static and had some physics to some props when the fights break outvery fair complaint, this shit has been expected in every game since Duke Nukem 3D, so leaving it out is pretty shitty.
>>737057615What other games are inspired by the old cartoon shorts from 1928 to 1960s beside cuphead?
>>737083376Finding secrets in shooters is fun, but replaying entire games is where you should be doing it, not individual levels.
>>737057615It's honestly pretty lame and uninspired. Charming with its style but is otherwise horribly mediocre.I give it my second-highest rating yet.7/10.
>>737083376bottles and cans react to gun shots but a lot less of the world is 'physical' than you expect it to be.. there is a hidden gun tied to collecting all of the secrets so if you miss one there's not really a way to go back and collect it unless you want to load a hard save from several hours ago and redo everything
Disappointing but not unexpected. I'll pick it up in a boomer shooter sale 2 years from now when it inevitably reduces in price to $5
is this actually a real game and not some so bad its good ai generated kusoge?
>>737087334Yeah, it's a pretty basic detective penny dreadful with charming animations and designs. >>737073885>>737070453it basically plays like a 'lite' version of nuDOOM without the glory kills.. moving from room to room and killing enemies as they spawn with an evolving arsenal of weapons. You can upgrade them ala Bioshock 1 through the mechanic mouse in that webm and they actually do physically change; you can turn your starting pistol from semi-automatic to burst-fire and other stuff like that. There are some sections with story and dialog and for what it's worth the performances are pretty good, they bill the fuck out of Troy Baker as the main character but he puts in work. Full of stupid rodent wordplay which I absolutely love so it suckered me in with that, it doesn't feel 'cheap' but it doesn't feel AAA.. I feel like the game will benefit from patches that introduce quality of life things like more destructible environments and level select. Would probably grab it on sale if you're not keen on the idea.
>>737083303if every pirate was a nigger than that would practically make the majority of this site a bunch of niggersand thats DUMB
>>737057615It's the cat's meow
>>737057615Do you do any actual detective stuff in this game or is it just an aesthetic choice?Like are there clues to collect and mysteries to solve and stuff or are you just shooting shit to progress while the mystery solves itself in cutscenes?
>>737057615>game looks kinda fun>fuck it I'll drop $10-$15 for it>It's $39.99 +tax (not including tip)man I haven't bought an indie game in a long time, maybe Braid? I thought they were like 5 to 20 bucks tops
>>737080424Imagine running off with the top half while the legs chase after you.
>>737082925BUMP BUMP BUMP>>737071181
haven't played much, just past the vaudeville part, idk I've played better free doom mods...
>>737090869https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZukmIhUNTQ watch a few minutes of this in a private browser with the sound muted, just scrub through babe
>>737064045I think IGN gave it a 6 out of spite because you look at the creators they gave preview copies to, they're all community level creators like GManlives, Indiemaus and Jonathan Ferguson. Quite a community-driven marketing push which I think must've pissed IGN off
Main gripe I've got so far is how quickly corpses disappear. Hell, kind of annoys me that corpses disappear at all. I can understand it in a resource intensive game for the sake of performance but in a game with sprite based enemies and largely static environments, I just feel like there's no reason for it.
I've played 5 minutes. Felt very boring.I'm going to play a little more but I'm not sure I'm going to like it.
For those who have played it, what's the closest boomer shooter you can compare it to? Is the shooting good or more like an afterthought to the cartoony gimmick? Do enemies lead their shots? Are there hitscanners? Do headshots do more damage? Do enemies react to limb/hand shots or are they just big sponges of damage that go into their canned death animation when you hit their threshold? Is there ducking or sliding to avoid shots? How's the movement? Zoom zoom like Doom Eternal/Ultrakill/Viscerafest or more grounded like something like Boltgun/Doom Dark Ages? I like old cartoons but I'm not going to tolerate shitty gunplay.
>>737057615It's VERY pretty. Holy shit is it pretty. So far I do feel pretty railroaded though. I guess that's the price you pay for a hefty art pass.
lol this game is absolute dogshit
Im enjoying it
from the videos i watched, the gunplay looks very unsatisfying, almost like theres no kick to it. is it better in gameplay?
3D envrimoment with 2D animation sprites looks so ass.
>>737093883Doom called. Duke Nukem Called. Both said "shut the fuck up retard"
>>737057615The Doom Souls of Mickey Mouse
>>73709062640 is for deluxe which has dlc and shit.
>>737073578Yes, yes (you) are.
>>737094327A real Shill in the wild, a rare sight.
>>737096135Cool, where's my paycheck?
>>737096181eh uh, you are getting paid with Paypal
